Abstract

This disclosure generally relates to a systematic method for inventory management wherein the user can manage the storage location, can track inventory stocks, expiry dates, level of stocks, and other features through a dashboard. The system is easy to use and provides reliable output.

The invention claimed is: 
     
         1 . A processor-based inventory data collection computer for efficiently collecting and validating inventory data, comprising:
 a central processor coupled to a system bus, the central processor adapted to receive the inventory data and operable to validate the inventory data using a plurality of program codes;   at least one flash memory coupled to the system bus, the flash memory adapted to store inventory data as the data is entered into the device and also adapted to store the program code;   at least one random access memory coupled to the system bus, the random access memory adapted to store validation tables and validated inventory data, the validation tables used by the central processor to validate the inventory data;   a scanner interface adapted to couple an external scanner to the central processor and operable to transfer the inventory data to the central processor from the external scanner;   a keyboard for entering the inventory data into the computer;   a display operable to show a report of the inventory data collection;   
     
     
         2 . The inventory data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein the system may specify the location and categories. 
     
     
         3 . The inventory data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein the user can track the quantity and expiry dates of stock. 
     
     
         4 . The inventory data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein a QR/UPC scanner is used to check the quantity and expiry dates of stock. 
     
     
         5 . The inventory data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein the system will generate alerts in case of low stock. 
     
     
         6 . The inventory data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein the system will allow t navigate through all items present in the stock. 
     
     
         7 . The inventory data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein the system will also allow to store items using location and sub-location.
